Customizing Qt Tab Widget

[Ratzz]

@Farhan
If I understand you correctly is this what you wanted?

[Farhan]

Exactly! how did you do that?

[Ratzz]

@Farhan
I just used setStyleSheet on QTabWidget .

[Farhan]

what properties did you set in style sheet? can you show the style sheet?

[Ratzz]

@Farhan

        ui->tabWidget->setStyleSheet("background-color: red");

[Farhan]

Actually i was using the same style sheet. after using the style sheet my window looked like this . But when I preview it it looks like this . my stylesheet is same as yours except the color ofcourse.

@Farhan
So you want the preview window to display same as the StyleSheet window?

[Farhan]

yes I want to get my final window like this

[Ratzz]

@Farhan
Now how is your final window? so you already have? or what is the problem now?

[Farhan]

I am getting my final window like this . Here you can see the white color that apeared around the tab icons(blue colored icons) in designer_mode is gone. This is my problem. I want white color around my blue icons.

@Farhan
But this is in preview mode does it the same when you run your application?

[Farhan]

Oh God! i thought preview would be same as the application. Application is showing the desired result. Problem solved. Thank you very much.

[Farhan]

Just one more thing. Is it possible to create something like this using tab widget?

[Ratzz]

@Farhan
But this already has ? Gray and white?

[Farhan]

@Ratzz I mean the dark gray color.

@Farhan
I think you can set using http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qtabwidget.html#tabBar

[Farhan]

@Ratzz Thank you that was really helpful.
